I don’t see how. Biden and Bush have both explicitly shown that they’re dedicated to something beyond politics, and politics is just a vehicle to get there for them.

Doesn’t mean any of the supernatural is real or fascists make sense, just that these people’s worldviews are shaped by it. And if nothing else, the secrecy and elitist nature of these movements simply provide somewhere for fascists to network and collaborate as seen with Gladio. A lot of the societies don’t give a shit about the occult/ancient history outside of ceremony to make them feel special and exclusive which attracts rich and powerful narcissists.

It’s all free on the site and I’m reading the intro, and it can be a little whacky sometimes with its matter of fact tone when it comes to associating events with the occult, but it doesn’t attribute everything to the occult. Just like bands after the Beatles, you don’t really need to know or care about who pioneered what or who founded this and that. You can be influenced by it subconsciously, be inspired by others who are familiar with the origins, or deliberately seek things out for your own benefit without caring about the history or traditions

It's bad history. It confidently states unsubstantiated facts.

Masonic history is a whole sub-specialty of history, there are a lot of texts and dusty sources to be looked through, a lot to learn there.

I'm skeptical that there's sources that connect the followers of Zevi to Scottish Rite Masonry, for one. And I'm skeptical of basically every other claim in the pic

Well I guess so. I am more familiar with the modern organizations and movements, and some of it mostly* matches up with what I’ve seen elsewhere, so I can’t say anything about its research into the ancient stuff. I just find it interesting is all
